India-US Trade Deal Near Completion, Could Be Signed Within Months

A major trade agreement between India and the United States is expected to be finalized within three to four months. Negotiators have largely completed the deal text, leaving little substantive bilateral work remaining. The main obstacle to signing is the conclusion of ongoing US Section 301 trade investigations, rather than any disagreement between the two countries. Once those probes wrap up, the deal is expected to move forward. The agreement is designed to broaden market access and strengthen economic ties between the two nations.
